Popping all my tires

There is a saying in the weight loss world is that your weight is like tires on a car. You get a flat, you fix the tire and go on (ie ate something bad). You don't go around the car popping all your tires... you just fix the bad one. Well, I've been eating a lot of junk and have no energy and am gaining weight.I know I need to get my eating and exercising done right. Geo and I have started swimming 3 days a week, We use a lot of sunscreen. It's fun and it's a good way to exercise. I've been so lazy about journaling. I went to a therapy training last week... it was really good, but it threw everything off. Then I go to the doctor yesterday for a follow up and med refill. I took their van to the doctor and they left me there 1 hour before my appointment. Then I waited TWO AND A HALF HOURS in the exam room. Geo and I were supposed to go see a movie but had to postpone it. I was so close to a breakdown. I missed therapy because I thought I had enough time to do both. It was my fault for scheduling 2 appointments in one day. Now I need to see my therapist soon.. I might call in tomorrow for a walk in. geo and I are having some issues and it's hard to deal with. I'm not going to break up with him, but we need to set guidelines on what is permissible and not. He just doesn't get a lot of things that he does affect me. I have been waking up around 10 am now and my body gets tired earlier so I sleep the same number of hours. Okay,it's late. I need to take a shower and get to bed.

So good to see a new journal post from you. I hope you will be able to have a nice long talk with Geo soon.

I love your journal. the analogy of the tire and weight loss. It\'s great that you are swimming with Geo.. I do hope you get to the therapist and can straighten things out with Geo. It\'s hard sometimes.. We all get into situations where we are not on the same page and things affect you differently than him. Hopefully you can get that across to him.. Good luck. .HUGS.
